All Garnier products are officially approved by Cruelty Free International.

Since 1989, Garnier has been committed to a world without animal testing.

GARNIER'S new BB Cream,  combats shiny, oily skin, by combining the power of ultra-absorbent mineral pigments for an immediate matte look and perfect, even-toned skin. 

The oil-free BB cream works in five ways. It reduces imperfections, moisturises, gives skin a healthy glow, delivers a beautiful matte finish to skin and provides all-important sun protection with SPF 15.

GARNIER'S Oil-free BB Cream provides instant results while also improving the skin’s quality over time. After four weeks the results are clearly visible; skin is less oily, pores reduced in size, imperfections are visibly reduced and skin radiance is improved.

It has a  new active ingredient,  Mineral perlite - a powerful volcanic rock extract known for its ultra-absorbing properties.

Mineral perlite is able to retain up to two-and-a-half times its weight in oil and water and is five times more absorbing than talc, meaning any excess sebum is absorbed to fight that oily shine. This combined with uncoated mineral pigments gives the skin an even tone and a perfectly matte finish

GARNIER Miracle Skin Perfector-Oil-free BB cream is available in two shades - light and medium.

In two minds

Love the way my skin looks after I've applied it - fresh and glowing, quick and easy to put on - maybe the applicator needs redesigning as it's quite a runny product compared to the one with oil in it. But my skin was still feeling quite oily by the end of the day but defiantly not as bad as when I was using the other one that wasn't oil free I was getting break outs thats why I changed to oil free. It has it's pros and cons but I'll stick with this one and maybe try another brand once this one has run out

It's not that great

I don't really like this formula, it's quite thick. It feels quite greasy once its on. I didn't think the cover was very good, it didn't add much cover to my skin. Also it gives my skin a strange looking tint. I have found that I break out after I wear this BB cream. It makes my skin really oily and pimple prone.

Perfect for the Beach

This is an alright product, I wouldn't say that it does everything it says, but it's perfect for a day at the beach or casual summers day.

I like how it has a subtle coverage and although it doesn't really mask imperfections it brightens up your complexion.

I don't like however how the lightest colour is quite orange and really only works with my complexion when it's a little tan over summer. This doesn't make my face as oily as the original but it still has a long way to go.

Tips: This is best applied with your fingers as a brush soaks up the BB cream a little too much.

Garnier BB Cream

I used this well I had bad skin thinking since its light it would make a difference and allow my skin to breathe. However It did the complete opposite and made my skin worse. It didn't make a difference and no coverage at all. Ended up giving it to my mum she liked it so I guess different people different reactions. I have reacted to other BB Creams as well so obviously not for me.

Definitely a good BB cream to start out with

If you haven't tried BB creams before and have normal to moderately oily skin, I do recommend giving this a try. It has a lovely, even coverage that does last all day. I still have to apply a little concealer on my under eyes and over any especially red blemishes but this does have staying power. However it doesn't really prevent oiliness. While it stays on, my skin is pretty much an oil slick by the afternoon (even if I've powdered after application).

I think that this would be a great oil free BB cream if your skin is only a little oily, but my mega oily skin should probably start looking for something different to wear everyday. The reason I have continued to re-purchase this is the price and availability, it's under $20 and I can buy it in the supermarket, so I think that's a real selling point for Garnier and they should be commended.

Tips: Not really for very oily skin, but if your skin is only a little oily, this is a lovely BB cream really. I do recommend dusting your T-Zone with translucent setting powder.

IN LOVE

I adore this product! It's so light on your skin and super blendable, but still gives enough coverage, without being as heavy as liquid foundation. It's super hydrating so it's great in summer, especially if you're going to the beach and don't want to wear any make up. Alternatively, if you do want further coverage it acts as a great primer if you want to wear foundation over top.

Love this product

I am so surprised how great this product is - its the first time I've used a Garnier product. It goes on beautifully, it easily blends with different skin-tones and gives a natural glow. Great as a quick make-up solution before dropping the kids to school - add a bit of bronzer and mascara and away I go. This is a HUGE thumbs up from someone who usually sticks to Clinique and MAC products!

Tips: Apply before bronzer for a natural, fresh finish.

Everyday Cream

LOVE this stuff! I use it every morning (unless I am not leaving the house) and is the only makeup i use. It is really easy to apply and does smooth out your skin tone.. noticeably. It lasts pretty much all day (although sometimes i will touch up with some pressed powder if going somewhere after work). For the price, you really can't go wrong!

Tips: In summer, still use sunblock underneath!! It is spf 15 but still, better to be safe with SUN!

A beauty bag must have

Love BB creme! Perfect for a quick makeup application when in a rush or to give an amazing base for your foundation! I use this everyday and love how it evens my skin and gives a nice natural look alone or a perfect primer effect before foundation!

Tips: Applying twice gives a heavier coverage, apply top powder to set and stop it slipping during the day and eliminate shine!

Great product and a great price!

I love this product! It works really well in the Summer as a light foundation. In the Winter I find it is a little too drying and am now using the one for sensitive skin. It is more moisturing but I find it not as easy to use. I really like how this (the oil free version) is quite 'thin' as I find it very easy to use.

Tips: In the colder months I find you need a moisturiser first. For a fuller coverage pressed powder work a treat on top of this BB cream.
